Lesson by Cath Rees
Learning Intentions:
- I know how to be kind and caring.
Step 1: Activity overview for parent, carers and pupils
This activity is part of the religious education curriculum and links to being kind and caring. There is a short three-minute online story. The main activity can be completed offline.
Step 2: Introduction to the activity and additional information
Watch the video below to find out how Jesus helped others.
- What kind of person was Jesus?
- Can you use words to describe him?
- Was he selfish? Kind? Caring? Mean?
- Why do you think this?
Remember that this Bible story is just one example of how Jesus helped others. Can you think of any other Bible stories that show Jesus healing others?
Jesus had caring hands. He used his hands to heal others and to care for them. Today we are going to think about our own hands and how they care for others.
